11 BRM Cloud Native Deployment Software Compatibility

Learn about the software that is compatible with the Oracle Communications Billing and Revenue Management (BRM) cloud native deployment package. This package uses Docker, Kubernetes, Helm, and Linux for containerization and orchestration.

Topics in this document:

Caution:

  • It is the responsibility of the system administrator to ensure that all installed software dependencies are kept up to date wherever possible. Oracle supports versions of the software where the software vendor declares backward compatibility to the version certified with BRM and where the upgrade is a minor version increment (that is, A.B.C to A.B.D).

    It is particularly important for system administrators to adopt this policy for software dependencies for which upgrades are generally related to security rather than focused on functionality.

  • Oracle does not provide support for any prerequisite third-party software installation or configuration. Any installation or configuration issues related to non-Oracle prerequisite software needs to be handled by the customer.

Third-Party Platforms

  • BRM cloud native is designed to be agnostic of the underlying cloud infrastructure. It relies on standard APIs, objects and configuration functions from the software products listed in this document. As such, BRM cloud native is certified on any container platform based on a CNCF-certified Kubernetes, provided the version requirements listed in this document are satisfied.

Additional BRM Cloud Native System Requirements

The Docker images were validated with the software listed in Additional BRM Cloud Native System Requirements.

Note:

Oracle does not provide any of the third-party software mentioned in the table below. The product cannot be used until you have separately obtained and installed the required third-party software.
